David proved the Law of Cosines with reference to ∆ABC using a different method. Arrange the steps of his proof in the correct s

AURORKA [14]

Answer: We can arrange the steps with help of below explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here ABC is a triangle,

Draw a perpendicular from BD to side AC ( construction)

where $D\in AC$

In the right triangle BCD, from the definition of cosine:

cos C =CD/ BC

CD= a cos C

Subtracting this from the side b, we see that

DA= b-acos C

In the triangle BCD, from the definition of sine:

sin C =BD / a

BD = a sin C

In the triangle ADB, applying the Pythagorean Theorem

$c^2 =BD^2 +DA^2$

Substituting for BD and DA from (2) and (3)

$c^2 =(asinC)^2 +(b-acosC)^2$

⇒ $c^2 =a^2sin ^2C+b^2-2ab cosC+a^2 cos ^2C$ ( On simplification)

⇒ $c^2 =a^2sin ^2C+a^2 cos ^2C+b^2-2abcos C$

⇒ $c^2=a^2(sin^2C+cos^2C) +b^2-2abcosC$

⇒ $c^2 = a^2+b^2-2abcosC$ (because, $sin^2\theta+cos^2\theta =1$ )

Given the formula b=rs/t solve for s

Gekata [30.6K]

Answer:

$s = \frac{bt}{r}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for s, you need to follow these steps.

First multiply by t both sides of the equation.

$b = \frac{rs}{t}$

$bt = \frac{rst}{t}$

We get $bt = rs$

Now we divide by r, both sides of the equation.

$\frac{bt}{r} = \frac{rs}{r}$

Finallly we obtain:

$\frac{bt}{r} = s$ or

$s = \frac{bt}{r}$

The variable is Quantitative, has Interval level of measurement.

Variables which can be quantified & expressed numerically are Quantitative variables. Eg : as given , price

Variables which cant be qualified & expressed numerically are Qualitative variables. Eg : level of honesty, loyalty etc

Nominal & Ordinal are qualitative variables : signifying yes or no to a category (like men or women) , or ranks (x better than y) respectively. So price level is not such categorical & ordinal ratio.

Quantitative ratio variables are with reference to time , or are in forms of rate (like speed , growth per year). So, price level is not such ratio variable also.

Price is a quantitative variable, in which the ranking, its difference can be calculated. This is characteristic of a <u>Quantitative Interval Variable</u>.

Use Lagrange multipliers to find three positive numbers whose sum is 210 and whose product is maximum. (Enter your answers as a

nalin [4]

Answer: the three positive numbers are; 70, 70, 70

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that sum is equal = 210

Lets ( x, y, z ) be the three positive numbers

such that

x + y + z = 210

what is the maximum of xyz

take f(x,y,z) = xyz

Q(x,y,z) = 0

x + y + z -210 = 0

consider the function

F(x,y,z) = f(x,y,z) + λQ(x,y,z)

F = xyz + λ(x+y+z-210)

dF/dx = 0 ⇒ yz + λ(1) = 0 ⇒ λ = -yz ..............equ(1)

dF/dy = 0 ⇒ xz + λ(1) = 0 ⇒ λ = -xz.................equ(2)

dF/dz = 0 ⇒ xy + λ(1) = 0 ⇒ λ = -xy...............equ(3)

Now

equ(1)/equ(2) ⇒ λ/λ = -yz/-xz ⇒ x = +y

equ(1)/equ(3) ⇒ λ/λ = - yz/-xy ⇒ x = +z

⇒ y = z = x

by substitution

x + y + z = 210

x + x + x = 210

3x = 210

x = 210/3 = 70

∴ x, y, z = 70, 70 ,70

MAXIMUM

∛xyz = 70 { when x = y = z = 70}
